Both would be a much better member than Turkey though. Those rat bastards attacked Greece and by the NATO laws should have been attacked and wiped out of existence back in 1974.


Agreed. Turkey has positioned themselves as the wild card yet again. They always find a way to be strategically in the middle of any major conflict ready to screw over one side of the other unless given an incentive not to.

The Turks were hugely influential in driving the Syrian refugee crisis and attempted to use the Syrian Civil War to reclaim lands lost post WW1 under the Sykes Picot Agreement.

They also rode the fence in the Cold War so that they could get big money from the U.S. to not allow Russian missile sites in their territory.

Crazy to think that they were nearly added to the eurozone and Schengen area back in the 2000's.

Truly. No way that happens now or in the foreseeable future.

Not to mention Turkey has been banned from the F 35, is buying Russian missile systems and weapons, and has turned the Hagia Sophia back into a mosque from a museum.

They are looking more divergent from us with each passing year.
